New research to analyse the economic benefit of Official Development Assistance (ODA) programming that directly or indirectly targets children found that every $1USD of child-related ODA directly or indirectly results in a $10USD return and highlights that investing in children is a way to maximise the benefit that donors see from their ODA programmes.
The research also analysed global ODA spend and found that only 12% of all ODA of development assistance is either directly or indirectly child-related even though children make up 46% of the populations of aid-receiving countries.
The report also outlines specific recommendations for governments and donors.
